Synopsis

We all know how we cry tears when we are sad, or get butterflies in our stomach when we are nervous. These are simple connections between the mind and the body that are easy for us to understand. But what about the bigger issues, when the body gets ill, diseased, or damaged?

Now with Your Body Speaks Your Mind, Deb Shapiro—author of The Body Mind Workbook and Unconditional Love—shows you a practical way to learn the language of your body so you can understand how your thoughts and feelings directly affect your physical health.

The body shows us what we are unconsciously ignoring,denying,or repressing, she says. With her breakthrough book, readers learn:

A system-by-system guide to your body that reveals what it is telling you about yourself
• A cross-referenced index of symptomatic illnesses, from headaches to pneumonia, and the emotional imbalances they symbolize
• Creative visualization and meditation techniques to enhance your ability to listen to, communicate with, and heal your body, and more

Healing is a continual journey—one of embracing ourselves ever more deeply, explains Deb Shapiro. Your Body Speaks Your Mind takes you on that journey, deepening your relationship with your own mind and body. Revised and updated UK bestseller.

This product can be shipped within the US and Canada only.

A seminal book on this is Antonio Damasios's "Decartes Error". Decartes said "I think, therefore I am" and Damasio's bo......more

I never intended to read this book. It was part of a collection of my mums which she passed to me one day as she realised I started reading more. I thought I’d give it a try. If you are a believer of controlling your own destiny and that you can manifest all that happens in your life then you should......more

Goodreads review by Kristin on June 30, 2015

Required reading for a yoga training I attended. I think the book has some valid points about the power of positive thinking as it relates to our physical and spiritual wellness and how the three (mental health, spiritual health, physical health) are all integrated and not separate from each other a......more

Goodreads review by Janet on July 19, 2019

I should have read this book years ago! It may have made a difference in my health. I always knew that the mind and body were connected. I could feel muscles tense and knew that breathing was constricted. I just never knew enough on how to change what was happening internally. This book presents man......more

Goodreads review by Sherri on October 08, 2018

I bought this as a required text for my yoga training class. There were parts that were very helpful and other parts that felt anecdotal rather than supported. Still, a good resource to be aware of, especially if you are experiencing pain or symptoms without obvious cause.......more
